looking for a simple conversion function to take an arbitrary UTC date and convert to local (Syndey) time. Sydney is subject to two time zones according to this rule :

Daylight Saving Time (AEDT) begins at 2am on the first Sunday
in October and ends at 3am on the first Sunday in April; otherwise AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time) applies


CEEIGZCT gives me current HH:MM displacement, but it is based on current system time, so doesn't serve my needs.

I can code this natively in COBOL but hoping there are system value/s that could at least give me a start and end date for the AEDT period.

None of the input dates are going to be in the cut over range (2am to 3am).

Need to package the solution to run under Batch and CICS.
